Trying to adjust to a new city was always difficult. Tracy had learned that over the course of her life, bouncing from foster home to foster home during much of her childhood and teenage years back in the states. This would normally be no different, if not for the fact that this wasn’t a new city. Not technically, anyways. London was familiar to her, even if the London she once knew was both exactly the same and completely different.
In just the course of a week, everything Tracy thought she knew about herself had been turned upside down, shaken, and then promptly tossed out the nearest window. And now she lived in a world where she - Tracy Adams - had never even existed. As a human, anyways. She couldn’t apply for asylum, there were no documents proving she had come from anywhere. And the hospital was out too - even if she claimed amnesia, the doctors would spot something off about her the moment they tried to listen to her heart.
So she was stuck. A refugee in her own country, adrift a sea of confusion.
The only true bright side to this situation was that the city was still the same. She could walk the streets of some neighborhoods blind, and she trusted her feet even when her mind was off in a million other places. This is how she ended up at the steps to the library - the perfect place for someone in her situation. If she could find out what to do anywhere, it would be within the walls of the library.
Familiarity was a welcome sight for Tracy - the sounds of pages turning, of computer equipment softly humming, of children whispering and giggling among themselves. The soft sounds of a public library was calming to her anxious mind, allowing her to at least try and focus on what she needed to find.
Now she only hoped that somewhere, somehow, she could find the answers to her questions.
